Hi Everyone--
My post for Alphabet Thursday is a serious one this week.
There is a blogger named Betty at Daydreamnworld.blogspot.com.
No, I don't know her, but I read about her yesterday on Jenny
Matlock's blog.
Betty's son, Reid is very ill and facing a serious surgery and
we bloggers are being asked to send cards to the hospital to
cheer him up...I read about Reid yesterday and mailed
a special tag I made for him today.
If you would like to mail Reid a card, it would be very appreciated.
Here is his info.
Reid Martin
c/o MD Anderson Cancer Center
Room 1741
1515 Holcombe Boulevard
Houston, TX 77030
Why did I say that "'V' is for 'victorious?'" Because I hope that Reid will be victorious over this illness and come through this ordeal with restored health.
If you would like to see a picture of Reid and read about the story of this young man, you can visit his mom's blog.
Thanks so much!

Beautiful post Cindy ...
I will go and visit, Cindy. MD Anderson is the other hospital we were considering for Jud and is a very good place. I am anxious to see Reid's picture and make a tag or card!
I like "Victorious"!

Thanks for sharing this. Yes I will make and send a card right away. Gee I wish I still lived in Houston I would go for a visit. If there are any bloggers that can His parents could use a basket of goodies while sitting at the hospital. We have been through a lot of hospital stays and know that vending machines and fast food sure add up!

This is wonderful. Thank you so much for sharing.
It's so nice of you to help spread the word.
Oh cindy, you just made me cry.
Thank you for spreading the word of this. I had an e-mail from Betty saying how weak Reid is and how he opens a card when he has the strength and energy and each one makes him feel better.
Generosity of spirit like this really makes me feel our world has a chance.
And I feel so blessed that you shared this here.
Thank you.
Hugs and hugs and hugs and...

The cap locks on my computer is being difficult. I'm so sorry I didn't capitalize your name in my first comment.
Cancer really sucks....
Prayers to all involved.
